Linux
Resources.
Ubuntu
Free Linux Operating System Distribution - Home Page
Quote From Site: Ubuntu is a community developed operating system that is perfect for laptops, desktops and servers. Whether you use it at home, at school or at work Ubuntu contains all the applications you'll ever need, from word processing and email applications, to web server software and programming tools.
My Comment: I've been using Ubuntu now for a couple of years (I moved from Debian) - it's definitely a real alternative to windoze (as are most Linux distros).
Linux Online!

Regular Expressions Info
Tutorials, Software and Reference - Home Page
My Comment: If you're thinking about doing a little more than surfing the net or word processing on your linux box, then sooner or later you're going to have to know something about regular expressions. Combined with a scripting language such as Perl, Php or Python, regular expressions can give you enormously powerful pattern matching capabilities.

The Disclosure Project
UFO Disclosure Campaign - Home Page
My Comment: Brave attempt to force the US Government to allow over 400 government, military, and intelligence community witnesses to testify to their direct, personal, first hand experience with UFOs, ETs, ET technology, and the cover-up that keeps this information secret.
Be sure you download the 2001 Press Conference Video - congratulations go to the global press for it's refusal to give the conference the publicity it deserved. Unfortunately, in recent times, the project seems to have lost it's way.
Misc
Various sites.

Animated Movie Shorts - Home Page
Quote From Site: The 30-Second Bunnies Theatre Library…in which a troupe of bunnies parodies a collection of movies by re-enacting them in 30 seconds, more or less.
